    Hi all,

    Just been having a tinker around with Signlab. I imported a jpg into signlab and tried to use the digitiser pen. Only problem is this. When I select the pen, the image becomes blocky with no definition to the edges i want to vectorise. When I double click the image, it all cleans up. I can’t seem to have both at once to be able to vector the image!

    Am I missing something? I’ve had a quick look through the settings, but can’t find anything relevant?!

    Probably just need to open my eyes and look properly!

    Adam,
    not quite sure what you mean, but in the toolbar-view, see if "show reduced bmps" is checked, if so clear the tick.

    As Peter said but always expect pixelation. Sometimes you have to fire a few nodes in where you think you’ll need them.

    I’ll explain myself a bit better…

    When I import a photograph into SignLab, it’s nice and clear like it should be. When I deselect the photo, it goes pixelated. If I double click the image again, it’s a nice clean photo again. When I select the tool to begin drawing, it goes pixelated again.

    That any better? lol
